[QUOTE="Andy, post: 407079, member: 5096"] We brought sweet puppy home when she was 4 months old. It is so hard to tell kids that puppy can not sleep with them so we compromised. The crate was put into difficult child's room. He slept on the floor for a few nights next to the crate and that helped a lot. After that, he would talk to her or even sing to her from his bed. It helped that with it being summer, difficult child was home pretty much 24/7 for a few weeks. I am working on getting sweet puppy to either go into her crate (which is now at the front door) or sit back and stay if there is any activity at the door. We don't get much for company so that part is hard to train, however, this includes letting diva puppy in and out of the house. We know when diva puppy is ready to come in because sweet puppy will go into her crate. She also will go in when she knows diva puppy will be let out. When diva puppy wants in and I am closer to the door, I love to have sweet puppy sit and stay. She is so good about waiting for the door to shut before coming forward. When the weather is warmer, I think difficult child will have to help work with me to get her to either go into the crate or sit and stay when the door bell rings. He will need to be outside ringing the doorbell while I work with her. She usually starts barking at the sound of the doorbell on t.v. or the computer. [/QUOTE]
